Stealing Fragrance and Stealing Jade in the Red Chamber
Chapter 48 Lian 2 couple, dragging the family
Jia Lang woke up at sunrise the next day with a severe headache.
After drinking the hangover soup, Jia Lang went to Jia Lian's room, just in time to see Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng drinking and eating.
"Look, look, our fourth-rank master is here, why don't you hurry up and make us happy." Wang Xifeng looked at Jia Lang and got up immediately.
"Don't embarrass me, I will take office in two days, and I want to talk to my second elder brother and second sister-in-law today." Jia Lang was not polite, and sat down on the chair directly.
"Why are you in such a hurry?" Jia Lian was also a little surprised.
"What if you don't rush, this is the great grace of the emperor." Jia Lang drank a glass of wine.
Wang Xifeng agreed immediately and asked Ping'er to bring all the servants down.
Seeing all the servants going down, Jia Lang said, "I will go there for about a year or two, and after some experience, I will go back to the household department to take up my post. This time, I want my brother to go with me and be my colleague. We will return to Beijing to report on our work together in the future. Once you have qualifications, you will naturally be promoted."
When Jia Lian heard this, his eyes lit up immediately.
These days, he went to Zheng'er Bajing as an official, and only then did he understand some things.
However, since he is young and does not occupy a high position, he can only turn a blind eye to the affairs of the mansion.
Jia Lian held down Jia Lian and wanted to toast his wine, "I'm having a headache, don't drink anymore."
"Second brother, let me explain first that Yuan'an County is a poor and remote place, and it is absolutely impossible for it to be as prosperous as the capital.
Therefore, suffering is certain. " Jia Lang said slowly.
When Jia Lian heard "hardship", he didn't think much of it.During this period of time, he gained real power and lost a lot of weight by running around every day.
"Brother, don't think too much. There is really nothing there. I'm afraid you have to experience the farming thing yourself." Jia Lang said seriously.
Having said that, Jia Lian's heart beat a drum, "Could it be that Jia Lang didn't want him to go, but he didn't want to talk about it with him." '
"You and I are brothers. If you don't explain it, I won't be able to explain it when you blame me. Besides, I already have a way to improve my political performance.
How can I not tell my brother about this matter rather than making it cheaper for others.So, let me warn you first and explain the situation.Think about it carefully, if you want..." Jia Lang naturally knew what Jia Lian was thinking, and his words hit Jia Lian's mind.
Jia Lian hadn't waited for Jia Lang to finish speaking, so he raised his wine glass, clinked each other, and drank it all in one gulp.
"You can be a master if you have to endure hardships. My brother, I just hope that I don't hinder my younger brother." Jia Lian said it with sincerity.
But in a year or two, you will be able to face the saint, and you have to survive even if you die.
Jia Lang also raised his glass and drank it down.
Turning his head, he said to Wang Xifeng: "Sister-in-law is really good. A few days ago, Lao He came to report the store's income to me, and praised that if sister-in-law is a man, she is really a hero.
Now that the accounts have all been settled, they were supposed to be distributed a long time ago, but because of the matter of Chun Wei, the higher-ups have not spoken, so it is difficult for us to settle the accounts.Now that the higher-ups have opened their mouths, the account will be settled a few days ago.Qing Chan. " Jia Lang shouted towards the outside.
Qingchan immediately walked in with a small box.
He raised his hands and handed it to Wang Xifeng, and after Wang Xifeng took it, he saluted and left.
Qingchan, Sangzhu, Yuliu, and Yaolan are Jia Lang's four personal servants, but outside of Sangzhu and Yuliu's care, Qingchan and Yaolan's are in charge, so Qingchan and Yaolan are not often seen.
When I saw it suddenly, I realized that both Qingchan and Yaolan looked good.
When Jia Lian saw it, although his heart was moved, he didn't dare to have any evil thoughts.
"It's 3000 taels and 260 taels in total. With the help of my sister-in-law this year, I made up 5000 taels. Sister-in-law, don't think it's too little."
When Wang Xifeng heard the numbers Jia Lang said, he almost couldn't even sit on the stool, his heart was pounding.
When I opened it, the box on the first floor was full of peanuts, gourds, and other auspicious rewards.Looking at the second floor, it was actually filled with silver ingots worth a hundred taels.
Wang Xifeng's heart was about to jump out, and her hands trembled a little when she opened the third floor. As she thought, it was all 1000 taels of silver bills.
"This... this..." Wang Xifeng was really overjoyed.
She originally just wanted to gamble, but after Jia Lian told what she saw and heard, and after she also read the account books, she never dared to underestimate him.
Originally thought that there were only a few hundred stores, and the income was only a few 10 taels.When she saw all the books at the end of the year, she realized that her vision was so low. Where is a few 10 taels of silver, it is clearly a few 10 taels of gold (one tael of gold = 100 taels of silver). This year's income is enough She spent her next life lying on top of the pile of money.
Income is not profit, Wang Xifeng naturally knows that cost is the big one, but thinking of such a huge income, even one percent, it is enough to shock her and throw the power of Rongguo Mansion behind her.
Wang Xifeng just treated people and raised some opinions (mainly some news from the upper class), but did not mention any system or regulations.
One is that the rules set by Jia Lang are several times better than hers, so why bother to find discomfort.
Secondly, asking her to treat people is not asking her to be a housekeeper, so naturally she can't make decisions without authorization.
It was this exquisite ingenuity that Jia Lang valued, and it also made Jia Lang somewhat regretful that Wang Xifeng was either born in the wrong age or the wrong gender.
"My sister-in-law is really ashamed to accept this. I really didn't help at all. I was just joking around as a brother, and I never thought it was true. My sister-in-law is really ashamed and dare not accept it."
Wang Xifeng blushed with joy when she saw Jia Lian, thinking that the money might not be safe, so she put the box away and pushed it to Jia Lang.
"Sister-in-law, please accept it with peace of mind. This money is the capital for brother and sister-in-law to go to Yuan'an County." Jia Lang pushed back again.
Wang Xifeng and Jia Lang were taken aback.
"Yuan'an County is a well-known impoverished county, although there are already solutions, but it is absolutely impossible to collect people's hearts without spending money.
I can't pay for this money, or in other words, people outside must know that it was paid by the second brother, and I will not be the only one who will be debriefed after a year.
This time my brother must go with a hard-working heart, and my sister-in-law will go with a box.If you don't go, just share some with your brother. " Jia Lang said and got up.
Wang Xifeng and Jia Lian got up quickly.
"I'm going to report on my work tomorrow, and I'll be there in at most three days. Sister-in-law, please clean up for brother. I'm afraid it will be a while before I go." She raised her hand and saluted, and left.
Wang Xifeng looked at Jia Lian and the box on the table.
I have thought about it.
Jia Lian thought about Jia Lang's words, but didn't think about money for a while.
"Clean it up for me, it doesn't need to be too gorgeous, just bring a few extra pieces of ordinary clothes. Money, you can give it to me. You just..." Jia Lian just wanted to say that Wang Xifeng was at home, after all, he worked for Jia Lang, more than 1 a year How can there be such a good job in the world.
"I'll let you go. I'll give half of the money to you, and the other half will be used for daily turnover." Wang Xifeng pushed the box over as she spoke.
After all, Jia Lian is still the most important thing for her. If Jia Lian can make progress, the money spent will come back in time.Moreover, Jia Lang is so self-confident, coupled with the flesh and blood of his family, if he dared to lie to his husband and wife, he would not be ashamed to meet him in the future.
"Since you're going, I won't stop you. I'll take one piece of money, and ask you if it's gone. You hurry up and pack it up." Jia Lian took away a piece of 1000 taels of silver, and it was not greedy.
With money in hand and confidence in mind, it is natural not to be afraid.
"Isn't that enough? I used to be afraid that you would spend your money and hurt your health if you spend your money outside. Now that you're doing serious things, I can't be a roadblock. Take it with peace of mind, I'm sincere." Wang Xifeng said I bought five thousand taels of silver bills, and the plate of broken silver.
After all, he is an official, and he can't lose face when he is away from home.
Wang Xifeng and Jia Lian's humility deepened their relationship.
"I'm off to work, and I'll be back in the evening." Jia Lian touched Wang Xifeng's flushed cheeks, and said evilly.
Wang Xifeng poohed, snorted arrogantly, and slapped Jia Lian's hand away.
Send Jia Lian out personally,
Jia Lang already had a plan, and as for the luggage, make a list and order it down.The servants and maids in Lixiangyuan were too busy to touch the ground, but Jia Lang had nothing to do.
Knowing that Jia Lang was going to take office in Yuan'an County soon, they were very worried.He was also afraid that Jia Lang was busy at the moment and would disturb him if he came over.
When they ganged up to visit Jia Lang, they found him lying leisurely in a chair alone, drinking tea and admiring the flowers with nothing to do.
Qi Qi looked back at those maidservants whose brows were sweating, and they didn't even have time to salute them.
A black line.
Sure enough, their Brother Lang was an extremely powerful existence.
"Why are you here? They came to see me off." Jia Lang counted the number of people and found that Xue Baochai and Jia Baoyu were missing.
"Sister Xue is ill today, let us say something to say goodbye to you for her. Baoyu was called by the second master to give a lecture."
Xue Baochai was trying to avoid suspicion. Whether he was Jia Lang's "sister" or not, Jia Lang, who had just got engaged, naturally needed to avoid it.
Because the engagement has not been officially finalized, they can still pretend not to know and pull Lin Daiyu over.Since Lin Daiyu is here, Jia Baoyu cannot be there.
"I'm not here this time. Lian's second brother and sister-in-law will also go together. From now on, the backyard will still be managed by the eldest wife and the second wife. I have already told the eldest wife. If you encounter any problems, just go to her.
Yingchun, you help the eldest wife to manage the housekeeper. Mother is already old, so you should help her and don't make him tired.If you are too busy, find Tanchun.
Tanchun, I have entrusted Yingchun and Xichun to you.Don't be lazy for me, or I won't even bring you any fruit when I come back. Jia Lang nodded Tanchun's forehead and said with a smile.
"What about this? You don't care?" Tanchun mischievously pushed Lin Daiyu who had been standing far away.
"Uncle is going back to Beijing to report on his duties soon. From now on, he will either be an official in Beijing or work in Qinfeng Academy. I have already sent someone to clean the old Lin family house. Don't mind if you don't feel comfortable living there.
Always, it won't last long. " Jia Lang's last sentence made Lin Daiyu run away in shame.
"Brother Lang, I misjudged you. I didn't expect you to be such a person." Tanchun and Yingchun hurriedly pulled Lin Daiyu back.
"Okay, okay, call Baoyu and Miss Xue, and go to the ancestor's place to have dinner together. Wherever you go to get together, I will see you off." Jia Lang's marriage to Lin Daiyu is now fixed, even if there are elders who don't Good to meet.
It is not harmful to Jia Lang, but it is still harmful to Lin Daiyu's reputation.
Tanchun and Xichun left with Lin Daiyu.
Yingchun was stopped by Jia Lang, and the two went to the eldest wife's place together.
After drinking the hangover soup, Jia Lang went to Jia Lian's room, just in time to see Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng drinking and eating.
"Look, look, our fourth-rank master is here, why don't you hurry up and make us happy." Wang Xifeng looked at Jia Lang and got up immediately.

"Why are you in such a hurry?" Jia Lian was also a little surprised.
"What if you don't rush, this is the great grace of the emperor." Jia Lang drank a glass of wine.
